This book anchors literary critic Hortense J. Spillers' thought into conceptual forms of subject, abject, and insurgent, distilling each individually and then examining how they relate to one another to confront and combat racist heteropatriarchal forces that cement antiblackness.
This book aims to show, in unique ways, in keeping with Spillers’s innovative thinking, how not to treat subject, abject, and insurgent in a typological fashion, or teleology, but to account for ways in which, in their distinctive forms, also related to one another as they confront and combat dehumanization.Hortense J. Spillers: Subject, Abject, and Insurgent Black Radical Thought bears witness to the poetics of black radical thought in this right moment when black thought insists on its demands to have the world fundamentally changed.
